Chapter 328: Shoushan Stone
"Mom, this is royal jelly, and you may not be able to buy it outside. Even if you can buy it, you definitely can't buy such a good quality, you eat a little from time to time, and the scientists there say that taking it for a long time has the effect of nourishing the skin. Zhou Furong was afraid that his wife would not know, and explained.
The gifts brought by Chu Jiaqiang made everyone very satisfied, they were all home-produced things, and they were not expensive, but they may not be able to be bought outside, and they were extremely precious.
"Hmmm! Your hometown is good, and you have to live for a while when you have time. Old Man Zhou said.
"That's a great welcome, full of fluffy!" Chu Jiaqiang hurriedly said. Now I am not afraid of others passing, the house can still be occupied, and in two months, they will also move out. In addition, Ye Qijun will be able to live there soon, and no matter how bad Jackton is, they can do it, and they will be comfortable there.
Old Man Zhou waved his hand: "Okay, since you all want to see it, let's go!" You young people may not be interested, so it's better to go and see it. ”
Chu Jiaqiang glanced at the wall clock on the wall, and the time was already one o'clock in the afternoon. So everyone went out, of course, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother's family had no interest at all, so they had to stay at home.
Zhou Furong brought his so-called heavy treasure, which he found in Yunkai Village. It cost him 500,000 yuan, which was borrowed from Chu Jiaqiang.
Yunkai Village has some history, it used to be a commercial center, and there were many merchants who came and went, and it was normal to leave some valuable antiques. At that time, they walked into a small shop together to eat. Zhou Furong was suffering from an occupational disease. After looking at the small shop several times, he saw a porcelain vase.
This porcelain vase is not very large. It was only the size of a fist, and it was originally filled with powder. The powder is developed by the locals themselves using herbs. It is effective for external injuries. The porcelain vase is still a colored vase, and on the outside is a painting of peonies entwined with branches.
If it were someone else, people would definitely see that the owner of your small shop didn't know the goods, so they would just give a few small dollars and send them away. However, Zhou Furong looked at Chu Jiaqiang's face, and it was not good to trick people too much, so he told the boss directly. The porcelain vase is a good baby.
Seeing that Zhou Furong was honest and had reached 500,000 yuan, the boss was afraid that he would regret it, so he hurriedly sold the porcelain bottle. I didn't even take the powder back inside.
"The location is set at Mr. Hong's house, don't talk nonsense wherever you go, watch more and talk less, don't embarrass the old man." Old Man Zhou reminded Zhou Furong. Of course, it is also hinting at Chu Jiaqiang and Ye Jisheng. The three young men nodded their heads one after another, indicating that they would not talk nonsense.
When the car drove into the Shamian villa area, everyone knew that the other party was not small. Who doesn't know that the people who live in it are rich and noble? The villas inside are as few as 10 million, and more than 100 million are not unusual, and you may not be able to enter it if you have money.
Ye Jisheng also guessed something, the surname Hong in the province. It should be the Hong family. The Hong family is not inferior to Wan Lao's family, and even a few points stronger. Therefore, I didn't dare to make a mistake, and honestly followed behind.
The garden-style villa looks comfortable, and when you walk into the villa, you find that there are many people, most of whom are old men, and a few young people, which is estimated to be the same purpose as Zhou Furong. Bring something to find a buyer.
"Huh! Old Zhou is here? It's up to you. Many people greeted Mr. Zhou. It seems that Old Man Zhou has a lot of experience in researching in this area, otherwise those people's tone would not be so respectful.
"Huh! Bring a few juniors over to see the world. Old Man Zhou said with a smile.
Everyone greeted each other, and Old Man Zhou did not forget to introduce Chu Jiaqiang and others to everyone. People saw that Chu Jiaqiang and Ye Jisheng were not insiders, and they came here purely to join in the fun, and their enthusiasm was a little less. Chu Jiaqiang and the others were not disappointed, they came here for no purpose.
"Alright, now that you're here, let's get started! I'm a landlord, so I'm throwing bricks and stones. "Hong Lao is a spirited old man, dressed in Tang costume. He raised his hand and beckoned, and someone inside held out an object.
When you look at it, it is a stone sculpture with a large book. However, everyone found that this stone carving was not very good, it was a monkey, and the stone field was yellow.
"Huh! Don't rush to comment first, let's take a look at the object first. Hong Lao smiled.
At this time, many people came over, and some people concluded: "This is the authentic Shoushan stone." He didn't dare to talk about the carver, after all, to say it was to slap the face of the old man.
Chu Jiaqiang and others don't know how to appreciate it, but Shoushan Stone has heard of it, and it is a famous stone. Zhou Furong explained to the two buddies. Shoushan stone in gems and colored stones, belongs to the color stone category of the rock subclass, its species, stone name is very complex, about more than 100 varieties. According to traditional customs, the general items of Shoushan stone can generally be divided into three categories: "field pit", "water hole" and "mountain pit".
In addition to being used in large quantities to produce a variety of seals, Shoushan stone is also widely used to carve people, animals, flowers and birds, landscapes, stationery, utensils and other works of art.
"This kind of Shoushan stone for artistic carving is mainly produced in Shoushan and Emei, Dongzai, Hutan, Shibitou and other deposits, and its mineral composition is mainly ground stone and kaolinite, followed by pyrophyllite." Zhou Furong glanced at Chu Jiaqiang and Zhou Furong, and found that the two were absent-minded, so he knew that Bai had explained, so he sighed and said, "Forget it, I don't understand it to you." ”
Ye Jisheng shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "Do you know that you still scratch the noise?" ”
Zhou Furong choked suddenly, and originally wanted to talk to them about how to appreciate this kind of Shoushan stone, but unfortunately the Tao is different! The old man told him before that the collection and appreciation of Shoushan stone mainly depends on three aspects.
Let's see if it's appropriate to "apply your skills according to your aptitude". The biggest feature of Shoushan stone carving art is to use the natural color of the stone to carve out works that match the shape and color. When we appreciate and purchase Shoushan stone carving works, we should look at the unique skills of the carving artists in "applying art according to their aptitude". See if you can make full use of the stone, stone shape, stone color, and stone pattern to determine the corresponding theme and shape, rather than far-fetched.
Second, see whether the technique is reasonable. Shoushan stone carving has been developed from the extremely concise techniques seen in the culture unearthed from ancient tombs to modern fine high-relief, open-through carving and round carving. A piece of Shoushan stone carving boutique often comprehensively applies a variety of traditional techniques.
Third, see whether the knife technique is sufficient. The technique of Shoushan stone carving is reflected through the knife technique of moving the knife. The knife technique of Shoushan stone carving has a unique artistic style, with concise knife technique, Pu Mao's knife technique, strong knife technique, and Xiuling's knife technique. Such as thin carving, flower and bird carving, more use Xiuling's knife technique; For example, the carving of the round carving of the figure, the ancient beast seal button and other carvings are mostly used in the knife technique of Pu Mao, which is suitable for collectors and connoisseurs to "play" in their hands, without stabbing their hands, and has another taste.
